Limiting the portion of the day during which you eat has become an increasingly popular way to lose weight.


"We were surprised to find that people who followed an 8-hour, time-restricted eating schedule were more likely to die from cardiovascular disease,” Victor Zhong told the American Heart Association.

“Even though this type of diet has been popular due to its potential short-term benefits, our research clearly shows that, compared with a typical eating time range of 12 to 16 hours per day, a shorter eating duration was not associated with living longer.”

People who followed a pattern of eating all their food during a period of 8 hours or less each day had a 91% higher risk of death due to cardiovascular disease.

Restricting eating to a 10 hour period per day was associated with a 66% higher risk of death from heart disease or stroke.
